[dx_custom_adunit desktop_id=”RTK_K67O” mobile_id=”RTK_5yk0″]
Normally, MST3K is harmless fun. A slacker spaceman and his lovable robots riff on bad movies for ninety minutes, everyone laughs, the end. But in “The Violent Years”, the crew didn’t realize a semi-graphic gang rape scene was coming, and were completely caught offguard. They tried to soften the blow with silly jokes, but the psychological damage to any viewer was already done.
